I doubt all of it is. And I certainly prefer my fresh fruit to be locally grown and not laden with chemicals. But the potential for fraud is so great - how does one know?
i’m at the store, looking at two bags of lettuce, and they are identical, except one says “organic” and costs lots more: on my planet, we call that bullshit.
i listened to some harridan whining to her daughter one day about how hard it was to find “organic eggs”… i asked her where she thought the others like the one’s i was buying came from, from the egg factory?… she blew a gasket.
